Ways to Give

Like other independent schools, tuition alone does not cover the costs associated with keeping this community of learners thriving, stable and able to grow and mature. Our goals are established by the Board of Trustees in coordination with the Development Stewardship Committee. Fundraising activities account for approximately 13% of New Roads School’s operating budget.

New Roads School is a charitable organization that is tax exempt under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code so your contributions are tax deductible to the extent of the law.

List of 6 items.

Contributions made by check, cash, or credit card are tax deductible in the year the gift is made. Checks should be made payable to New Roads School and sent to the Development office at 3131 Olympic Blvd., Santa Monica, CA 90404.

Gifts of appreciated securities, such as stocks, bonds or mutual fund shares, are a great way to increase the size of your gift to New Roads. Why? Because you get to take the full current value of your gift as a charitable tax deduction (rather than your lower purchase price). This saves you money on taxes and allows you to give New Roads a gift that costs you less than gifting the equivalent amount in cash. Please contact your tax professional to discuss your options and then call the Development Office at 310-828-5582.
